Senior Bowl American Team head coach Joel Thomas was in Mobile as part of the staff last year that witnessed Jack Bech's game winning TD. He spoke on Monday about how his staff would replicate that level of emotional investment. They lead 17-0 at half. #TheDraftStartsInMobile

In an interview after practice, Clemson's T.J. Parker told me his favorite rush move was a long-arm. Easy to see why. #NFLDraft #TheDraftStartsInMobile #SeniorBowl

For my money, Illinois' Gabe Jacas was the most dominant player at the Senior Bowl today. Instant win vs. Florida's Jake Slaughter here. #NFLDraft #TheDraftStartsInMobile #SeniorBowl

Texas Tech's Romello Height beating LT Dametrious Crownover high side for a sack at the Senior Bowl. I believe that's Penn State's Dani Dennis-Sutton winning his rush on the far side of the play. #NFLDraft #TheDraftStartsInMobile #SeniorBowl

At first I thought LT Trey Zuhn III got his leg clipped, but he didn't. This is just Clemson DE T.J. Parker catching him at the right time and folding him during National Team practice at the Senior Bowl. #TheDraftStartsInMobile #SeniorBowl #NFLDraft

Four players were still en route this afternoon. Fabianich said four other players, including Georgia Tech guard Keylan Rutledge, decided to drive to Mobile rather than risk getting delayed while flying. #seniorbowl #thedraftstartsinmobile

Interesting note from Senior Bowl Executive Director Drew Fabianich today at his opening press conference: His staff had to change flights 125 times to get everyone to Mobile in time for practices tomorrow. #seniorbowl #thedraftstartsinmobile

Gennings Dunker, G Iowa: 2026 NFL Draft Profile & Scouting Report Dunker was a three-star recruit from Lena-Winslow High School in Lena, Ill. in the class of 2021

Three Iowa Hawkeyes offensive linemen will be part of the 2026 NFL Draft. Gennings Dunker is the most recognizable member of the trio but might be the last one drafted due to athletic limitations. #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #2026NFLDraft

Beau Stephens, G Iowa: 2026 NFL Draft Profile & Scouting Report Stephens was a four-star recruit from Blue Springs High School in Blue Springs, Mo. in the class of 2021

Among a crowded group of Day 3 centers and guards in the 2026 NFL Draft, Iowa Hawkeyes All-American Beau Stephens is one prospect who I could see outperforming his draft positioning. #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #2026NFLDraft

Hezekiah Masses, CB Cal: 2026 NFL Draft Profile & Scouting Report Masses was a two-star recruit from Deerfield Beach High School in Deerfield Beach, Fla. in the class of 2022

California Golden Bears cornerback Hezekiah Masses is one of my favorite prospects in the 2026 NFL Draft. He has some physical limitations but is an instinctive playmaker capable of swinging a game’s momentum. #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #2026NFLDraft

Taylen Green, QB Arkansas: 2026 NFL Draft Profile & Scouting Report Green was a three-star recruit from Lewisville High School in Lewisville, Texas in the class of 2021

Arkansas Razorbacks quarterback Taylen Green is the most physically gifted QB prospect in the 2026 NFL Draft, but he’s raw and developmental. Green is a nice Day 3 multi-year project for the right coaching staff. #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #2026NFLDraft

Ted Hurst, WR Georgia State: 2026 NFL Draft Profile & Scouting Report Hurst was a recruit from Sol C. Johnson High School in Savannah, Ga. in the class of 2022

Georgia State wide receiver Ted Hurst will be one of the first Group of Five prospects selected in the 2026 NFL Draft. Hurst possesses exciting physical tools that complement his developing technical skills. #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #2026NFLDraft

Josiah Trotter, LB Missouri: 2026 NFL Draft Profile & Scouting Report Trotter was a three-star recruit from St. Joseph’s Preparatory School in Philadelphia, Pa. in the class of 2023

Not counting Arvell Reese, Missouri Tigers linebacker Josiah Trotter is my LB2 in the 2026 NFL Draft. His coverage profile has a long way to go, but his instincts and ability as a run defender are top notch. #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #2026NFLDraft
